Type 1 Do you use Tresiba?

I've been on it nearly a year since I was diagnosed and I like it have had to half my dosage from when I started but that's nothing lol x
 
My 19 year old daughter has been using it for the past 3 weeks and it seems to be REALLY good..no overnight rises and generally all readings below 8,after previously struggling in Levemir
 
Yes, and I love it. Only downside for me is you can't really adjust day-to-day. I need a lot less insulin on workdays than I do on not-work days. I found a very satisfying solution. I use a libre, so I can happily scan all day, so at work I take a quick small bite whenever I'm heading low, without bolusing. Doing this, I usually get enough food over the day to keep me going without bolusing at all. If I'm particularly hungry I take a small bolus and eat more, or I eat fish or cheese (I work in a fish restaurant/small fishing company). On not-work days I just bolus for my food. Works most of the time
